Do you need another low-carb breakfast recipe in your repertoire? You’re in luck, these Keto Cheddar Biscuits are an ideal low-carb breakfast.
These cheesy biscuits are naturally gluten free, low carb and reheat perfectly for meal prep. I made the keto breakfast biscuits with ground breakfast sausage to make them extra hearty and filling.
To make weeks move a bit smoother in my home, I like to make a batch of these on a Sunday and then enjoy them all week long. This recipe makes 23 small biscuits, so it’s ideal for weekly meal prep.
Ingredients in Keto Cheddar Biscuits
You will find the precise measurements and instructions in the recipe card below, but this is a quick overview of what you will need to make these sausage cheese biscuits:
- Cream cheese
- Shredded cheddar cheese
- Eggs
- Almond flour
- Baking powder
- Salt
- Heavy cream
- Butter
- Cooked breakfast sausage
Can I Substitute the Almond Flour?
I’ve made these keto biscuits with almond flour as well as other keto-friendly flours. In my opinion, almond flour works the best in this recipe. I do not recommend substituting it.
How to Make Keto Cheddar Biscuits
This recipe is based off of my Keto Cheddar Garlic Biscuits that I shared on my other website, Maebells. That version tastes just like Red Lobster Cheddar Bay Biscuits and only has 2 net carbs each! You can also find a ham and cheese version I created here.
These Sausage and Cheese Biscuits have the same cheesy base that contains a cream cheese, cheddar and egg base. This mixture makes the perfect soft, fluffy, cheesy biscuits.
- Once the cream cheese, cheddar and eggs have been mixed until smooth, add almond flour, baking powder, salt, butter and heavy cream.
- Next, fold in the cooked sausage. The dough will be quite thick and you may be tempted to add more moisture, but don’t.
- After you’ve mixed the batter, chill in the fridge for 10 minutes (otherwise they will spread out too much as they bake).
- Use a small cookie or ice cream scoop to scoop them out onto a greased or lined baking sheet.
- Lightly press the dough down to flatten it slightly. Bake until golden brown.
How to Store Keto Breakfast Biscuits
After baking, store these biscuits in the fridge. They’ll last up to five days in an air-tight container.
Can the Biscuits Be Frozen?
Yes! Since the recipe does make about 23 biscuits, I like to freeze about half of my batch for quick sandwiches or a side dish.
They freeze beautifully, so just store in an air-tight freezer bag and microwave in 20-second increments until warm.
What to Serve with Low-Carb Cheddar Biscuits
These sausage cheddar biscuits are excellent on their own and make a perfect grab and go breakfast option. They also pair perfectly with scrambled or fried eggs.
Another option is to slice the biscuit and add an egg for a complete low-carb breakfast slider. No matter how you serve these sausage cheese biscuits, I bet you can’t just eat one!
